ELISHA technology wins 2nd runners up prize at Biosensors 2008

18/Jun/2008

Professor Seamus Higson delivered a prize winning keynote lecture on results obtained by the ELISHA platform at Biosensors 2008 held in Shanghai.

The keynote lecture (K11) was entitled "Label-less AC impedimetric antibody based sensors with pg/ml sensitivities for point-of-care biomedical applications" Authors were:
A.C. Barton¹, S.D. Collyer¹, F. Davis¹, G. Garifallou¹, G. Tsekenis¹, E. Tully², S.P.J. Higson*¹ et al., ¹Cranfield University, UK, ²Dublin City University, Ireland

Much of the work presented in this keynote came from the ELISHA project and using the ELISHA platform technology. Sensitivities were discussed for some analytes as low as picogramme per millilitre, such as biomarkers for cancer, stroke and multiple sclerosis.
